ASTM Committee D01 on Paint and Related Coatings, Materials and
Applications was formed in 1902. D01 meets twice a year, in January and
June, with about 125 members attending over four days of technical
meetings. The Committee, with a membership of approximately 610,
currently has jurisdiction of over 675 standards, published in the
Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volumes 6.01, 6.02, 6.03, and 6.04. D01
has 30 technical subcommittees that maintain jurisdiction over these
standards. Information on this subcommittee structure and D01's
portfolio of approved standards and Work Items under construction are
available from the List of Subcommittees, Standards and Work Items
below. These standards have and continue to play a preeminent role in
all aspects important to the industry including: classification,
sampling, preparation, components, application, analysis, quality
assurance and end-use performance requirements.
